Post by: ReaperMaso on June 15, 2013, 07:39:31 PM
Somethings up with my ps3's fan and I'm not to sure what's going on my ps3 fan doesnt want to turn on at times i opened up the ps3 and notice that it was not running so i unplugged it and pluged it back in and the fan began running again and i was able to play some games but when i turn the ps3 off and dont play it for the day or more the fan does the same thing and i have to keep opening my ps3 up and unpluging and plugging it back in to have the fan run

a can of air or some rubbing alcohol NOT WATER
try using a diff fan if you can get ahold of one see if the issue continues
